3×3 · top 4.0% of 284,439 all-time · competing since October 2017 · 2017IGNA04
Christian Ignacio has been competing for 9 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.60, set at Warm Up Seattle 2025, puts him in the top 4.0% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,233rd in the United States. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since October 2017, he has put 99 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 17% around a typical one, an early reading from 8 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 4 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 30.73 in October 2017 to 8.60, a 72% improvement. Christian has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% of everyone who has ever competed.

Reading this page: a single is one solve's time · an average is the middle three of five solves, best and worst discarded · a PB is a personal best · a DNF (did not finish) is an attempt with no valid result: a popped piece, an unsolved face, an over-limit memorisation · top X% compares against everyone ever ranked in that event, which is fairer than raw rank because event pools differ tenfold.
